Just wanted to share a recent personal project, exploring the creation of complex geometric designs from a single animated object.
Pretty simple, just playing around with Mograph cloners. Rendered with Cycles4D, post production in After Effects.

Here's a few stills,
Thats kinda what I was figuring. I might try the "The Pixel Lab" work around. If that doesnt work, then as you have stated, remodeling is needed. Thanks for your help
I've really enjoyed looking at these - a top quality job from both of you!
PS: It would also be interesting to see the wireframe (mesh) for one or two.
There is a built in feature - not sure if it's quite the same, but maybe of use, see my quick demo below:
With the move tool selected, Ctrl (Cmd) right click on required axis and snap that back to the axis origin, then left click drag to the required vertex or other element you want to snap to.
That, my friend, is very cool. Quick, get it in our gallery and we'll feature it !
My only criticism (and even then it is very small) is that the strawberries, and particularly the inside of them / that one on the top right don't look very 'wet-look' and could do with a fair bit more reflection or a different fresnel there. Ice cream absolutely superb though !
